How, and to what extent, do apartheid regimes, ideologies, policies, and practices impact higher education? In this webinar, we will discuss the role of universities in apartheid, settler colonialism and racial supremacy. We will focus on higher education in apartheid South Africa and Israel, unpacking the role of higher education systems, institutions and scholars in othering and subjugating Black and Palestinian people, respectively, and enabling, facilitating, justifying and/or participating in crimes against humanity. Finally, we will address the importance of international academic solidarity with the oppressed and discuss the strategic role of academic boycotts and the global movement to decolonise higher education.
